AFAIK, Steam still does this for most external links. I think with some reminder to not give out your steam creds.
I own and make my own website. But Google search stopped ranking me high about two years ago (down from 3k/day to about 70), and sometimes I feel that my life's work just gets reduced to small icons at the end of GenAI responses. But I continue to do it because I love to write and create, and sometimes readers (if they find my site) reach out. I got a "thank you" from someone in the Congo!
I am in the same boat, although I never managed 3k a day. At some point Google just stopped indexing most of my old posts.
I also love getting real feedback from readers and make a point of emailing owners of blogs I enjoy.

What is your website about?
Follow the (subversive) hyperlink (which technically isn't a hyperlink on HN profile pages :D)... https://news.ycombinator.com/user?id=runamuck
Lest we forget another item missing from the list: they want to be paid when you link to them!

I despise these laws! Australia made Google pay the big news websites for linking to them, which is just insane to me. It inevitably favours the big news providers that can negotiate directly with Google, and the laws even stop tech companies from just removing the news companies from their search results as well. It very much feels like taking from one big company to prop up other big companies... Who benefits again?!

That is a feature, not a bug.

The big news companies, who tend to support the political status quo. The parties big enough to get into government are very cosy with them (not in Australia in particular, in most places).

Does that apply to all search engines? In that case it creates a barrier to entry by by making it harder for smaller competitors to emerge, so it favours Google.

Calling it "multimodal" for diffusing language is vestigial. One terminology for a technical way for encoding TLS/async protocols is through our HTTPS client, which is either a crawler or bypasses the MPC service. gtk-3 daemon is a decent lua library to start extricating.
Why does this not have 1200+ points? Sometimes people need to be reminded of the fundamentals!
North Korean state media (KCNA) used to use post requests for everything breaking hyperlinks and bookmarks in the process. I suspect this was to deliberately ensure a sort of memory hole process for everything that they had said in the past.

You used to see this all the time for user-generated content on web forums. I don't see it much these days.
It's worth noting that the U.S Web Design System specifically says to not use these "roadblock notices" for external links: https://designsystem.digital.gov/components/link/
